Hmm

This guy has size going for him, but his attacks are fairly telegraphed, he doesn't really get all his power behind his punches. He uses simple attacks. He doesn't watch his fighting measure, nor does he do much more than simply punch at the guy; even if the guy has his guard up. Once I think I saw him "slap" down the guys guarding hands, but still missed with his punch. He's a simple "head hunter" brawler. He fights with experience of a street fighter, you can tell that; but he is still a crude fighter.

If I had to fight this guy, I'd rely on his lack of finesse, keeping the fighting measure and using it against him, low line attacks, and of course, interception. I'd do whatever I could to avoid a blow, true - even though he doesn't get nearly as much power as he should behind his punches, it would still freaking be damaging simply because he's so big.

If I couldn't get in on him, or my attacks were not doing any damage, I'd try to grapple him down. My guess is he doesn't know the first thing about it. It would negate his power and size, and possibly be much easier to knock him unconcious with a choke than trying to punch that rock of a head.

Of course, I say all this sitting safely behind my keyboard. Things change in actual combat... but hopefully I'd choose the appropriate route at the time.

LOL I wouldn't waste my time. Spray him with mace, kick him in the balls, then make him your bitch. End of story.

If you really want to degrade him, give him an IQ test.

I'd tell my mummy!

That guy has got the psycho thing going for him.
I know of people who have been kicked in the balls full power, and just laughed it off.

The only way I could see any 'regular' guy taking this guy, is by either blinding him, or busting one of his knees and running!!!

P.S. were you actually expecting any serious replies?

That dude is a monster! Persoanlly, I wouldnt have put myself in that situation. I think that monster had some heart cause he stopped when the other guy gave up.

If it was on the street and that man attacked me, I would make sure I attacked first... the distance would dictate the technique I would use. My main goal would be to survive and get away, so I would attack and probally run to safety. There is no way I would go toe to toe with a man like that. I may sound like a pussy, but I would be laughing cause I attacked first and didnt recieve any punshiment.

His name is Kimbo Slice. He is a body guard for the girls that work for a miami based porn website. He also prize fights for cash. Last night he actually got knocked out in a fight.

He got knocked out by a professional mma fighter named Sean Gannon who challenged him after he saw the fight on the internet and wanted to prove himself and prove that a professional trained fighter will beat a streetfighter in a no rules streetfight. Although Gannon won he used some illegal manuevers like knees and he put Kimbo in a guillotine for like a minute which casued kimbo to gas thus causing him to lose. You can watch the fight here but you have to pay 8 bucks for it:

by the way, Gannon is a cop that wanted to prove himself against a former convict. Kimbos only former loss was against a guy who used a mace against him, and he knocked out a wrestler who tried to take him down by kicking him in the neck after I think sprawling or getting up.

You forgot to mention that this was to be a bareknuckle boxing match only.

Gannon had better be glad there were those walls and barriers because he would have been falling on the ground left and right. Kimbo's slam would have knocked the air out of the big man.

Gannon's knees & choke were aided by the walls.

Hell, Gannon even took a long rest as the wall held him up.

When Kimbo backed Sean into the short wall that one time he could have broken his back if he bent over it backwards.

Here is a site with some pretty good still shots from the Gannon Kimbo fight.
